[The last thing he wanted was for her to be sad for his sake. While the divorced happened years ago, there was no reason for Takeru to feel so sad about it right?
Right?]
Of course, even if they're not together anymore, at least I still have them! And that they're willing to talk to each other!
[...Well...somewhat. But that's besides the point right now!
Now that Patamon flew over to him and ate some of the chocolate, Takeru had to wonder if he was going to be able to eat dinner tonight though...]
Then how about we do that right now? I don't know if you have the things for it but it would be cool if we could!
[ Ishtar cared for him, and she wasn't bothered by worrying about others. It was by Ishtar's nature that he would be sad for someone else. She understood some things much too well sometimes. ]
Yes, that's a great way to think about it. I feel like that's a good approach to that. Even if they are separated you still have them both and it's great to know that they talk to each other still.
[ It's fine, that's all she needs to hear to feel happy for the boy. Ishtar offered Patamon some more chocolate as he floated over to them. ]
I think I have some in the fridge. I'm pretty sure he bought enough things to be used. I'm not the greatest, but we can make something right now if you want.
My apologies for being unclear. He told me he wasn't sure you were benefiting from his training methods any longer. He asked me if I would be willing to help you practice your swordplay.
[ She replied softly to him. Ishtar went to grab a few things from the shelves along with her bag and out the door she went since she heard the sound of Takeru sniffling. Patamon sounded worried too.
It takes a about ten minutes to run down the street to his home but there's a loud enough knock moments later. ]
[When Takeru opened the door, Ishtar could see that boy had been crying all right. And it wasn't all that long ago either based on how red his eyes were.
As he bit his bottom lip, he attempted to smile before gesturing the older girl to come on in]
I-Ishtar-san! It's really nice that you could come! Um...if you want, you can put your stuff over there by the table...
[Beofe Takeru could do anything else? He suddenly found himself in the arms of Ishtar. Not that he minded but without meaning to, he instantly started to hug her back!
At the same time, he could feel his tear trailing down his eyes once more. Of course, with him cry once more, it was difficult for him to speak coherently]
T-That's....T-That's...that's because....L-Leia-san she's....she's...not...she's not here....a-anymore...
[ He looked so sad, so she couldn't help but hug him tightly. Something must have happened for him to be this way. He's only a child after all. She could treat him as an equal, but she was reminded that he was only a little boy and he wasn't as strong or as brave and that's totally okay. She didn't say those outwardly. She only held him in her arms for however long he needed.
He's crying again and she could feel it. ]
Where did she go? Did she get sent home, lost somewhere?
[ Ishtar was worried because if it were anything like Facility, it would be pretty bad-- in which it was turning out to be like that the longer she stayed here. ]
[As much as Takeru wanted to calm down, he just couldn't. He held onto Ishtar as much as he could and kept on crying. He didn't want to cry anymore, he promised himself that he wouldn't! But now? Here he was again, in the same position as before.
He wasn't going a very good job as being 'strong' was he? But while Takeru kept on crying, Patamon could only give a frown before looking back at the older girl]
I think she went back home. That's what happens to people who aren't here anymore right? And that she's...
[ Ishtar let him since she knew he probably needed it a lot more than he looked. She didn't quite understand until this moment, how small and fragile Takeru seemed. He was always holding a strong front and doing his best. In more ways than one, he reminded her of her past self. Someone who struggled to be strong for others, yet at the same time, had their own worries. Ishtar was the same, with the same thoughts, but she was able to manage them better.
Ishtar gave Patamon a weak smile as she patted Takeru's head in a gentle and soothing manner. ]
I want to hope that she was sent to a better place if not her world. It seems viable to me. I'm sure she wouldn't want you to be sad for her either but it's hard right? Always being strong for others, while you really just wanna cry inside.
[It took a moment or two for the boy to calm down. While he didn't mean to cry so much, the fact that Leia was gone? Well, he couldn't help but be reminded of what happened with his own parents. After their divorce, he knew that it shouldn't bother him. Or at least, that's what people tell him anyway.
It's their problem. Not yours and yet? The boy really couldn't help but feel that way. He knew he had to keep being strong but this time? He really couldn't. Not now anyway]
N-No, I don't. I don't want her to be sad, I want her to be happy even if she's not here anymore. But I really wish she didn't have to go, I really hated that she did!

[Sniffle. Although, should Ishtar listen carefully, she can hear Patamon telling him that it was going to be okay but...
Clearly, Takeru wasn't having any of that right now.]
